Whisky - the EU Network GR Hydrodynamics code

Whisky is a code to evolve the equations of hydrodynamics on curved space. It is being written by and for members of the EU Network on Sources of Gravitational Radiation and is based on the Cactus Computational Toolkit . A version of Whisky should be released into the public domain soon. Whisky has grown from earlier codes such as GR3D and GRAstro_Hydro, but has been rewritten to take advantage of some of the latest research performed here in the EU. The motivation behind Whisky is to compute gravitational radiation waveforms for systems that involve hydrodynamics. Examples would include the merger of a binary system containing a neutron star, which are expected to be reasonably common in the universe and expected to produce substantial amounts of radiation. Other possible sources are given in the projects list. whisky_world

This is the first attempt of a world map which shows in green the location of Whisky developers and in white locations of Whisky users. Note: This map is not complete and may never be, if you do not let us know about any missing or wrong information. Please make suggestions about additions or corrections to the whisky-developers mailing list. This map was created using xplanet from this list of developers/users.
